Printing
Print Speed / System Performance
The Splash DC Series v4.0 server has 512Mb of frame buffer memory and 256Mb of pipeline buffer.
•
The maximum print speed for the Splash DC Series v4.0 system is limited by the print speed of the DocuColor
40/30 Pro Digital Color Copier / Printer.
•
Splash DC Series v4.0 is a full document printer; therefore, the print engine may not cycle up until the entire job
is ready to print. The copier may cycle down between each job depending on job complexity.
•
Overall system performance (“Click to Clunk” time) is primarily dependent upon the software applications and
network environment being used. Rasterizing (RIP-ing) is only a small fraction of “Click to Clunk” time.
•
Printing with custom software applications may produce unexpected or unknown results.
Printing Resolution
For all paper sizes, full resolution and full color depth is available (400 x 400 x 8).
Billing Meters
•
Splash DC Series v4.0 provides accurate billing of all color and black & white images in black detection mode.
•
When black detection is enabled, productivity may be affected when the copier/printer changes from black to full
color mix or from full color mix to black.
Maximum Image Sizes
•
The maximum image size from an application is limited by the maximum image size produced by the DocuColor
40/30 Pro.
•
The maximum image size of the DocuColor 40/30 Pro in the printer mode is: 11.69 inch ±0.5% x 17.13 inch
±
0.5% (291mm ±0.5% x 426.5mm ±0.5%)
•
The application and the DocuColor 40/30 Pro setup control image position.
IOT Specification
•
DocuColor 40/30 Pro must have 4.7 firmware or higher.
Printer Driver Support
•
Xerox, if necessary, supplies PPD upgrades
•
Adobe Level 2 for Windows 3.x
• Adobe 4.2 for Windows 95/98
• Windows NT 3.5 and 4.0 (custom drivers for NT are not provided. Only Microsoft PPDs are supplied)
• Adobe PSPrinter 8.5 for Macintosh (PPDs support earlier versions of the LaserWriter 8 driver (LW8.3 and 8.4)
• Support for UNIX will be via Xinet
• No driver support for DOS applications
